EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Princess of India Having Her Hair Done" is a hand-tinted copperplate engraving, created by Corsi after Giulio Ferrario in his renowned publication "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence, Italy in 1833. The scene portrays an Indian princess in the 18th century, adorned in rich fabrics and jewels, reclining on a raised platform amidst a lush courtyard. Her maids attend to her, fixing her intricate hairstyle, holding a mirror to ensure every detail is perfect. The princess indulges in the pleasurable smoke of a hookah pipe, her expression serene and content. The tranquil courtyard setting is adorned with a pond, fountains, and a flourishing garden, evoking a sense of peace and prosperity. The background depicts various Middle Eastern landmarks, including the cities of Gaza, Ashkelon, Tyre, and Sidon, as well as the holy lands of Lebanon. The diverse cultural influences of Christianity, Islam, and Hebrew traditions are reflected in the princess's attire and the surroundings, symbolizing the rich tapestry of the Middle East during this era. The intricate details of the engraving, from the delicate folds of the princess's sari to the intricate patterns of the courtyard tiles, showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of the time. This image offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Indian royalty during the 18th century, making it a valuable historical and fashionable treasure.
